About This Item
New York: Beacon, 1958. First Edition. Near Fine. First edition. 188, [4] pp. Bound in publisher's original wraps. Near Fine with light wear to wraps, narrow dried drip of excess binder's glue to spine. Pages toned. An excellent novel set in the South at the beginning of the Civil Rights movement. The publisher rejected its original title, The Black Mass of Brother Springer, and gave it a "sexy" cover and blurbs like "He was white. She was beautiful -- and bad" that are completely at-odds with the book's pitchblack-humored, amoral style.
